What is S3 Montenegro?

Modernization and increasing the competitiveness of the Montenegrin economy, by concentrating available research, natural and economic resources on a limited number of priority areas. S3 should enable further accelerated development of the relevant priority areas, but also the development of new sub-areas within them, as well as new industries with strategic potential based on the synergistic interaction of priority areas. Achieving the main goal of S3, i.e. a modernized and competitive Montenegro, is based on three key strategic directions that represent the general long-term vision of the country’s development, namely healthy, sustainable and digital Montenegro.

The main priority domains identified in Montenegrin S3 are:

  • Sustainable agriculture and food value chain
  • Energy and sustainable environment
  • Health and tourism
  • Information and communication technology as a horizontal priority.
